Influence of incoherent background on diffraction divergence of narrow light beams of He-Ne laser with wavelength of 633 nm due to refractive index changes of Fe-doped lithium niobate sample is experimentally studied. Incoherent background is produced by light-emitting diodes (LED´s) of different average wavelengths and laser diode emitting in blue region of visible. It has been experimentally demonstrated that nonlinear diffraction of coherent red beams of He-Ne laser with diameters on full width of half maximum (FWHM) near to 15 - 20 μm may be totally compensated by means of assistance of incoherent background with shorter average wavelengths 455 – 465 nm and even much lower intensity compared with that for coherent beam.
